Abstract
Additives comprising the reaction products of aminodiols and the products of benzophenone tetracarboxylic dianhydride and aminoalcohols and/or amines with long-chain hydrocarbyl groups attached improve the low-temperature properties of distillate fuels.
Description
This application is directed to multifunctional additives which improve the low temperature properties of distillate fuels and to fuel compositions containing minor amounts thereof.
Traditionally, the low-temperature properties of distillate fuels have been improved by the addition of kerosene, sometimes in very large amounts (5-70 wt %). The kerosene dilutes the wax in the fuel, i.e. lowers the overall weight fraction of wax, and thereby lowers the cloud point, filterability temperature, and pour point simultaneously. The additives of this invention effectively lower both the cloud point and CFPP (Cold Filter Plugging Point) of distillate fuel without any appreciable dilution of the wax component of the fuel.
Other additives known in the art have been used in lieu of kerosene to improve the low-temperature properties of distillate fuels. Many such additives are polymeric materials with pendant fatty hydrocarbon groups. These additives are limited in the range of their activity, however; most improve fuel properties by lowering the pour point and/or filterability temperature. These additives have little or no effect on the cloud point of the fuel.
No art is known to applicants which teaches or suggest the additive products and compositions of this invention. However, U.S. Pat. Nos. 3,910,987 and 3,910,981 disclose the use of certain aminodiols in the preparation of petroleum additives.
The additives of this invention are substantially different, however, both in terms of structure and function. They are oligomeric and/or polymeric materials obtained via condensation reactions, e.g. the reaction of aminodiols with acids and/or anhydrides. In terms of activity, these additives effectively lower distillate fuel cloud point, thus providing improved low-temperature fuel properties, and offering a unidque and useful advantage over known distillate fuel additives.
These new additives are especially effective in lowering the cloud point of distillate fuels, and thus improve the low-temperature flow properties of such fuels without the use of any light hydrocarbon diluent, such as kerosene. In addition, the filterability properties are improved as demonstrated by lower CFPP temperatures. Thus, the additives of this invention demonstrate multifunctional activity in distillate fuels.
This application is directed to novel oligomeric/polymeric benzophenone tetracarboxylate esters and ester/amides which have been found to be surprisingly active wax crystal modifier additives for distillate fuels. Distillate fuel compositions containing minor amounts of such additives demonstrate significantly improved low-temperature flow properties, with lower cloud point and lower CFPP (Cold Filter Plugging Point) filterability temperature.
These oligomeric/polymeric additives are the reaction products derived from two types of monomer components. The first monomer type is an aminodiol, either alone or in combination with other aminodiols. The second monomer type is a reactive acid/anhydride product, either alone or in combination with other such monomers, derived from the reaction of benzophenone tetracarboxylic dianhydride (BTDA) with either (a) an aminoalcohol, the product of an amine and an epoxide, or (b) a combination of an aminoalcohol (a) and an amine.
The additive compositions, described in this application are unique in structure and activity. The additive concentrates and fuel compositions containing such additives are also unique. Similarly, the processes for making these additives, additive concentrates, and fuel compositions are unique.
The additives of this invention have oligomeric (i.e. dimers trimers, etc.) and/or polymeric structures. Various hydrocarbyl groups, especially groups containing linear paraffinic substructures, are distributed along the backbone of the oligomer and/or polymer, and may be carried by either or both of the comonomers used.
The additives of this invention are the reaction products obtained by combining the two monomer types described in differing ratios using standard esterification techniques according to the following stepwise procedure: ##STR1## 2. Reactive Acid/Anhydride+HO-R5 -HO→ Oligomer/Polymer Where HO-R5 -OH=aminodiol(s) as described herein and R1, R2 and R3 are as described hereinbelow and R5 is the amine containing hydrocarbyl sub-structure of said aminodiol(s).
One of the comonomers as stated hereinabove, alone or in combination, used in the synthesis of these additives is an aminodiol. Any aminodiol may be used in this invention and may include, but is not limited by, examples given below.
On class of aminodiols are those diols derived fom the reaction of a primary amine with two or more equivalents of an epoxide: ##STR2## Where x+y≧2
R=C1 to about C100 hydrocarbyl, or C1 to about C100 hydrocarbyl containing phosphorus, nitrogen, sulfur and/or oxygen
R6, R7, R8, R9 =hydrogen, C1 to about C100 hydrocarbyl containing phosphorus, nitrogen, sulfur and/or oxygen
A second class of aminodiols are those diols derived from the reaction of a bis-secondary amine with two or more equivalents of an epoxide: ##STR3## Where x+y≧2
R, R'=C1 to about C100 hydrocarbyl, or C1 to about C100 hydrocarbyl containing phosphorus, nitrogen, sulfur and/or oxygen
R6, R7, R8, R9 =hydrogen, C1 to about C100 hydrocarbyl, or hydrocarbyl containing phosphorus, nitrogen, sulfur and/or oxygen
The other comonomer, alone or in combination, used in the synthesis of these additives is a reactive acid and/or anhydride derived from the reaction of benzophenone tetracarboxylic dianhydride (BTDA) or its acid equivalent, and suitable pendant groups derived from alcohols and amines with some combination of linear hydrocarbyl groups attached. These pendant groups include (a) aminoalcohols, derived from a secondary amine capped with an olefin epoxide, (b) combinations of the aminoalcohol from (a) and an amine, and (c) combinations of two or more different aminoalcohols. These pendant groups usually contain from 30 to about 100 carbon atoms or more.
A general structure, for example, for oligomers/polymers derived from BTDA partial ester and aminodiol is as follows: ##STR4##
A general structure fo oligomers/polymers derived from BTDA mixed partial ester and aminodiol is an follows: ##STR5##
A general structure for oligomers/polymers derived from BTDA partial ester/amide and aminodiol is as follows: ##STR6## where: x=y+z=0.5 to about 3.5 and preferably from 1 to 3.
a=0.25 to about 2, and preferably from 0.5 to 1.25.
R1, R3 =C8 to about C50 linear hydrocarbyl groups, either saturated or unsaturated.
R2 =R1, C1 to about C100 hydrocarbyl, or hydrocarbyl containing phosphorus, nitrogen, sulfur and/or oxygen.
R4 =hydrogen, C1 to about C100 hydrocarbyl, or hydrocarbyl containing phosphorus, nitrogen, sulfur and/or oxygen.
R5 =amine-containing C1 to about C100 hydrocarbyl sub-structure of the aminodiol(s) defined above.
In a one-pot synthesis process the aminodiol is first prepared by suitably reacting an amine or mixture of amines with an epoxide or mixture thereof and then reacting the resultant product with BTDA or its acid equivalent.
Examples of the amines include hydrogenated tallow amine, n-octylamine, piperazine and/or mixtures thereof.
Included within the scope of the epoxides as set forth above, are ethylene oxide, 1,2-epoxydecane, 1,2-epoxydodecane, 1,2-epoxytetradecane, 1,2-epoxypentadecane, 1,2-epoxyhexadecane, 1,2-epoxyheptadecane, 1,2-epoxyoctadecane, 1,2-epoxyeicosane and mixtures thereof. Especially preferred is 1,2-epoxyoctadecane and ethylene oxide.
The conditions for the BTDA intermediate aminodiol reaction may also vary widely with temperatures varying from 100° to about 250° C.
The reactions can be carried out under widely varying conditions. For example, the aminodiol may be prepared at temperatures varying from 80° to about 250° C. PG,8
The temperatures chosen will depend upon the particular reactants and on the solvent, if one is used. Typically hydrocarbon solvents such as xylene will be used. However, any non-reactive solvent including benzene, toluene or mixutres thereof can be used.
Molar ratios, less than molar ratios or more than molar ratios of the reactants can be used. Preferentially a molar ratio of 1:1 of epoxide to amine is choosen. Molar ratios of aminodiol to BTDA intermediate may vary from 1:3 to about 2:1 and preferentially 1:1 to about 1.25:1.
In general, the reaction products of the present invention may be employed in any amount effective for imparting the desired degree of activity necessary to improve the low temperature characteristics of distillate fuels. In many applications the products are effectively employed in amounts from about 0.001% to about 10% by weight and preferably from less than 0.1% to about 5% of the total weight of the composition. These additives may be used in conjunction with other known low-temperature fuel additives (dispersants, etc.) being used for their intended purpose.
The fuels contemplated are liquid hydrocarbon combustion fuels, including the distillate fuels and fuel oils. Accordingly, the fuel oils that may be improved in accordance with the present invention are hydrocarbon fractions having an initial boiling point of at least about 250° F. and an end-boiling point no higher than about 750° F. and boiling substantially continuously throughout their distillation range. Such fuel oils are generally known as distillate fuel oils. It is to be understood, however, that this term is not restricted to straight run distillate fractions. The distillate fuel oils can be straight run distillate fuel oils, catalytically or thermally cracked (including hydrocracked) distillate fuel oils, or mixtures of straight run distillate fuel oils, naphthas and the like, with cracked distillate stocks. Moreover, such fuel oils can be treated in accordance with well-known commercial methods, such as, acid or caustic treatment, hydrogenation, solvent refining, clay treatment, etc.
The distillate fuel oils are characterized by their relatively low viscosities, pour points, and the like. The principal property which characterize the contemplated hydrocarbons, however, is the distillation range. As mentioned hereinbefore, this range will lie between about 250° F. and about 750° F. Obviously, the distillation range of each individual fuel oil will cover a narrower boiling range falling, nevertheless, within the above-specified limits. Likewise, each fuel oil will boil substantially continuously throughout its distillation range.
Contemplated among the fuel oils are Nos. 1, 2 and 3 fuel oils used in heating and as diesel fuel oils, and the jet combustion fuels. The domestic fuel oils generally conform to the specification set forth in A.S.T.M. Specifications D396-48T. Specifications for diesel fuels are defined in A.S.T.M. Specification D975-48T, Typical jet fuels are defined in Military Specification MIL-F-5624B.
